The whole movement was natural and fluid.

It has to be said that Yan Xici's weight of just over 90 pounds posed no problem for Xiao Ran at all.

With a gasp from the girl, she was instantly lifted into the air. Her heart skipped a beat, and her head involuntarily buried itself in Xiao Ran's chest.

So the girl's nostrils were filled with the pleasant scent of soap and sunshine emanating from him.

It's no exaggeration to say that she could even hear Xiao Ran's heartbeat!

Each strike was incredibly powerful.

This made the girl's heart start pounding, and her little face unconsciously turned red.

After all, it was the first time she had ever been hugged like this by a boy.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous!

Even Xiao Ran, who was close to her, couldn't help but feel nervous.

Xiao Ran walked to the electric scooter in two steps, then carefully placed the person in his arms on it. Looking at her slightly flushed face, he said gently, "Sit tight, I'll take you home!"

After saying that, he sat on the electric scooter, kicked off the stand, and rode towards his home, placing his hands on the eggplant that was still hanging from his buttocks and broken from the fall.

Looking at the eggplant, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

What a reckless fool!

It seems I'll have to keep a closer eye on her from now on. If the eggplant is so badly injured, imagine what will happen to her. When we get home, I'll definitely have to give her a proper check-up.

The girl behind him was exceptionally well-behaved; she naturally reached out and hugged Xiao Ran's waist, resting her head against his back.

It looked so pitiful, like a kitten that had been wronged and desperately needed its owner's comfort.

Xiao Ran is the best to me. If it were my sister, she would definitely scold me to death!

Feeling the softness around his waist, Xiao Ran did not refuse this time.

Instead, he sighed helplessly.

She just fell down like that, she must be feeling wronged, what can we do but hug her?

Thinking it over, he comforted her, "That's not how you ride an electric bike. You've only just learned, so just practice riding it around the neighborhood. You can't go that far. If you want to learn right away, once you're better, I'll take you to a more open area across the Huangpu River to practice properly before you ride on the road."

"Oh." The girl behind sniffed and nodded pitifully.

"It's the weekend these two days, so I'll stay home and rest. I checked the wound, and it's not deep, just a scrape. Once it scabs over, I'll be able to walk again."

Xiao Ran originally planned to move house in the next couple of days, but seeing her leg, she decided to wait until the wound scabbed over.

The girl pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but rubbed her head against Xiao Ran's back.

Like a well-behaved little kitten.

It seemed to mean that you're still the best to me.

Since arriving in this city, Yan Xici has always felt that Xiao Ran is the best person to her, and that has never changed. She seems to have an innate sense of trust in him.

Hayao Miyazaki said that if you can do whatever you want in front of someone and feel at ease and secure, then that person must be someone very important to you.

The girl felt that Xiao Ran was that special person.
